I mentioned in the previous blog post that my mom and I made three different pasta sauces for dinner tonight, and thisWalnut Sage Sauce was one of them. I have never tasted anything like it before, and it is awesome!! The flavor of the walnuts really opens up when they toast in the pan and who doesn’t love the taste of butter?!? This simple recipe is the product of my mother’s culinary creativity, and I hope you will all enjoy it as much as we did tonight!

{ Ingredients }

1 cup chopped walnuts

1 stick unsalted butter

Kosher salt

¼ cup roughly chopped sage leaves

¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan

Cooked out fettuccine

{ To Make Pasta } Place the walnuts in a saucepan over medium heat and allow the walnuts to toast until fragrant. Add the stick of butter in pieces and then stir so that it melts completely. Once melted, add the Parmesan and the sage leaves until they wilt slightly. Season with kosher salt, to taste. Pour over desired amount of fettuccine pasta and serve with freshly grated Parmesan!
